Cushion diamonds, lab-grown and natural

The cushion is a softly rounded square, like a pillow: romantic, with a vintage feel. Cushions vary more than any other shape, from crisp “crushed ice” to big, old-style flashes.

Every cushion we sell is certified by GIA, IGI or HRD and has a 360° video, so you can see which look it has before you buy. This page shows square cushions; longer ones have their own page.

03 · Questions

Cushion diamond questions

What size is a 1 carat cushion diamond?

About 5.5 to 6.1 mm across for a square cushion. Cushions face up a little small for their weight, so compare millimetres.

What is a crushed ice cushion?

A cushion cut with many small facets that give a glittering sparkle. Chunky or old-style cushions show larger flashes. The certificate doesn’t say which; the video does.

Do cushion diamonds show colour?

More than most shapes. G–H is a good start; if you see warmth on the video, go up to F–G.
